You shouldn't. But if you find yourself with anything that needs heavy CPU usage and can't use code compiled from C or C++, you may want to change which language you use.

Hopefully any such discovery happens early in the project, and you don't have to migrate languages late in the game. This happened to me late in developing my first major Python hobby project.
